STAN BEAVER Is now booking for the spring/summer season. If your venue or company uses live entertainment, you need to check this out. Stan Beaver has been a professional entertainer since appearing on his father's TV show in Atlanta, GA. at age 5. The show is a good, clean, family show. NO off-color material of any kind! Stan has worked with many famous people in his career. People like Tom T. Hall, Jeannie C. Riley, Carl Perkins, Ray Charles, Hoyt Axton, Faron Young, and the Righteous Brothers, just to name a few. 'Way back in 1963 (he was just a kid then) Stan went in to RCA Recording Studio in Nashville and recorded a song called "I GOT A ROCKET IN MY POCKET" (Petal Records # 1012) Just a little novelty song about beating the Russians to the moon....but it got a lot of radio and TV airplay. Now the original records are collector's items worth $35 to $50, if you can find one in good condition.
"I GOT A ROCKET IN MY POCKET" has been re-issued, world wide on several various artists LP's and CD's in Germany, England, Australia and most of Europe. Stan's newest recording is a CD featuring the original 1963 recording of "I GOT A ROCKET IN MY POCKET" and other vintage recordings, PLUS some newly recorded material. We KNOW you'll like it!
And a new CD of Contemporary Christian music, most written by Stan himself. On May 8th, 2000, due in part to "I GOT A ROCKET IN MY POCKET" Stan was inducted into the "ROCKABILLY HALL OF FAME". An honor not given to just anyone. He's in good company with such Rockabilly heroes as Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Roy Orbison. Stan and his dad (Leon Beaver) worked together on stage for many years until his dad passed away in 1999.
But now a new generation is coming up. Backing Stan on drums is his own son, Joel Beaver. Joel is now 17 years old and is already a seasoned professional drummer, having played both concert and recording dates with his dad and others. "The Stan Beaver Show" is a wholesome, family oriented show, featuring: Rockabilly oldies, classic country music and comic impressions of famous entertainers including Elvis, Bill Anderson, Johnny Cash, Hank Snow, Ernest Tubb, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and many others.
